Broker is an office comedy set in the high-stakes world of Los Angeles commercial real estate, where Jules, a former actor, struggles to succeed while maintaining her integrity and her creative spirit. The show takes place in and around the offices of Seymour Commercial, a small but successful firm run by Ted Seymour, a self-styled motivational speaker who remains gleefully oblivious to the absurdity of his guidance. Jules is the odd-woman-out here: a former theater major surrounded by businesspeople, a broke bus-rider surrounded by Teslas, a couch-surfer amidst millionaires. Here, Jules works with an assortment of chauvinists, buffoons and sharks, including the slick, ruthless brothers Chip and Connor, who haze her mercilessly until she proves herself worthy; Gary, an oafish agent for whom the office is an escape from his wife and infant twins; and Gloria, the acerbic office manager who becomes Jules' ally and confidant as she rises through the ranks. Week after week, Jules helps aspiring restauranteurs, yoga teachers, vegan dog food manufacturers, and assorted other only-in-LA entrepreneurs find the perfect storefront. She has to fake it until she makes it, using her talents as an actor to convince clients and colleagues that she actually knows what she's doing. The more successful Jules becomes, the more she runs into her ex-boyfriend Matt, a wealthy real estate developer who broke her heart, and his new girlfriend Destiny. As the series progresses, Jules leans on her colleagues as a makeshift family, and she begins to understand how intoxicating deal-making can be. Broker is an aspirational series, which asks the question, when your life doesn't turn out how you expected, how can you make the most of the life you've got?
